Lands of Heronia

A world in which little magic existed, and many kingdoms ruled. One throne watched over the different countries. In the lands of Heronia, a great ruler once lived guiding the kingdoms, however he left no successor. Many rose to rule over their own kingdoms attempting to rule them all, but none were as successful.

There was once a time when man and beast walked the the plains together, however a feud was had between the elves and the humans creating a war which almost led to the destruction of the beasts. Sentenced to live in the Unspoken Lands, only humans can rule over Heronia.

Over 400 years had passed since the the division of lands. A Great Ruler guiding over the kingdoms. Though the humans bred their own misfortune. The last Great Ruler found his end at the blade of a traitor. Heronia fell apart. The riches of the lands spoiling. A darkness covered the land. Resources were spent over the war of who would become the next ruler. However, a treaty was made which sheathed all blades to the title. The kingdoms be to rebuild in hopes of restoring to their former glory.

The Great Ruler's death, in year 404 HE, lead to a large rebellion from the Unspoken Lands. The creatures of the forrest sacked the kingdoms destroying the borders. The different human cultures crumbled, some clinging to their traditions, however they worked together to put a stop to the invasion. Though much was lost in the 60 Year War, humanity used combined forces to rid the threat and restore their lands.

In the year 462 HE, four human countries were restablished: Highholde, Førstejord, Pasduvent, and Granice.

During the time of 463 HE, the final reconstruction of the human civilizations began. A call went out to any living humans to report before a gathering to speak of laws, traditions and lands. The gathering called for a senate to form. All were encouraged to attend. Those who could prove their nobility were appointed on the council, and one would commoner elected would be assigned to represent the people until order was rebalanced.
